“Having a healthy diet will prevent disease down the road.” - Dr. Melinda Ring

Integrative medicine always starts with lifestyle. Even with the highest quality supplements and treatments, such as acupuncture and energy therapy, they’ll do very little if we’re not addressing nutrition and the other foundational pillars of good health. Finding the proper diet for you is critical to feeling better and maintaining optimal long-term health.

Today, I’m excited to be joined by Dr. Melinda Ring, a dedicated physician specializing in integrative health, culinary medicine, functional medicine, and lifestyle medicine. She has an active clinical practice, directs medical trainee education and clinical and faculty fellowships in integrative medicine, founded the Cooking Up Health culinary medicine course, and conducts research.

In this conversation, Dr. Melinda and I discuss culinary medicine and its role in healthcare. We talk about the importance of whole foods in overall health, how to incorporate healthy eating habits into daily life, ways to increase variety in the diet, why Dr. Melinda advocates for individualized nutrition, how to start addressing lifestyle factors, and more. Enjoy the episode!
